You Know You're From West Hempstead...

...some of your best memories were formed at Hall's Pond Park.

...after a big snowstorm you went sledding down "Dead Man's Hill."

...you looked forward to buying pickles at Shopper's Village.

West Hempstead is far more than just the western section of the Town of Hempstead. It's a diverse suburban community defined by its beautiful parks, unique businesses and most of all, the caring families who live here.
